Hi guys, I've just recieved my proscar from inhouse, only 2 weeks of waiting. Took my first 1/5'th pill and am experiencing a bit of dizziness, however I think it may just be a bit of paranoia. Has anyone experienced this? Are there any adjustment periods when you first start taking finasteride that I should be aware of?

You're ultra hyped up. :)

There is a study out there somewhere that states dizziness is the first side effect people experience with a drug and it was all linked to the mental part of it. I believe, from memory (so I could be wrong) that the placebo groups where within .01% of the real drugs.

This study also separated true dizziness causing drugs and non dizziness drugs.

wish I could find it but I lost track of it when I went to my new laptop a year ago.

Good luck to you. If you're concerned perhaps consider a lower dose.

thanks for the encouragement, I guess my senses are a bit heightended.

And with every reason.

Taking a medication for something so private is stressful.

You should always get a perscription from a Doctor though. :pint:

Well I actually did see a doctor, I wanted the propecia prescription but instead he was only offering to sell me the pills directly through him, at quite a hefty charge. I tried to make an appointment with a local dermatoligist but couldn't get in for 2 months! I finally decided to take matters into my own hands after putting it off for too long.

Diziness from using finasteride? First ive heard of it :dunno:

Guess you learn something new everyday...


Now if you were talking about diziness and rogaine foam, well thats a different story, ive almost fainted on numerous occasions because of minoxidil. You gotta be careful
